County Ajax based select list
March 21, 2011, 12:07:09 pm
This is working great when editing a contact. But not in the profile forms.
The profile that comes with the default civicrm install named "Name and Address" the county field does not auto-populate after you choose a State. (3.4)
I did try it on the demo site as well.
Thanks

Just I tried on 3.4 sandbox ( http://sandbox.civicrm.org/civicrm/profile/create?gid=1&reset=1 ), it is working fine.

I am not sure about

Actually States are getting auto-populated after choosing Country.

Rajan,

I can confirm this on demo. You can check now @
http://sandbox.civicrm.org/civicrm/admin/uf/group/field?reset=1&action=browse&gid=1 and
http://sandbox.civicrm.org/civicrm/profile/create?gid=1&reset=1

Issue is replicating. The only thing is that right now no county are populating on contact edit also. But it is changing from -Select state- to no Counties on select /unselect of state. 
While in profile the county filed do not responds to the change in state filed.

Yes, you should file an issue. Might also want to investigate and file a patch to address the issue.

County support was community contributed. Can you follow up with the original contributor: andrewhunt and see if he can provide a patch for this

thanx

I was racking my brain about this because I had it working myself, but then on another CiviCRM instance using the same codebase, it wasn't working!

It turns out that in the example above (and in my own example where it wasn't working), all the address fields, country, and state were for the Home location, but the county was for the Primary location.  The system only matches the county with the state of the corresponding location type, as it supports multiple addresses in a single profile (with different states and counties).

I set the county field in the sandbox to be for Home, and it's working--though it only has the original handful of California counties actually loaded in the database there.

I have a more basic question:

How did you get the county field to show in the profile? I can't find it in the list of available fields while creating the profile
